dc.description.abstractA poster presentation regarding low density lipoprotein control in patients with ischaemic heart disease. Introduction: The 2013 ACC/AHA guidelines on the treatment of blood cholesterol to reduce atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk recommend use of the appropriate intensity of statin and not a specific low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) target. The 2016 ESC/EAS guidelines for the management of dyslipidaemias recommend a target LDL-C goal of <1.8 mmol/L or at least 50% relative reduction. Patients with hyperlipidaemia are reported to be undertreated and not attaining recommended LDL-C goals. Aims: To assess LDL-C control and statin prescribing in patients with ischaemic heart disease (IHD) according to the European guidelines.en_GB
